Newborn and Family Photoshoot | St. Cloud

I love the pics from this newborn and family photoshoot I did last month! Baby Lucille (named after her great-great-grandma) was two weeks old at the time of our session. Mom, Dad, and their two preschool-aged boys brought the new little one to my St. Cloud photo studio, which is quite a drive! They live four hours away, in Babbitt, MN, so I was super flattered that they wanted to make the trip.

Mom and Dad chose yellow and pink as the main colors for our newborn and family photoshoot, to represent sunrise and sunset. I love the warmth and brightness!

The boys were adorable and super good about posing with their new baby sister. We got the cutest shots of them together! When kiddos are involved, I find it helps to keep things relaxed and just focus on having fun together, so we got lots of natural pictures rather than posed setups when the brothers were involved. We also had fun recreating a shot from mom’s childhood: The photo of the two boys on mom’s back is a recreation of a photo from when mom was small with her own parents. Such a great idea!

 It was a pleasure to spend time with sweet little Lucille and her parents and brothers. What a beautiful family!
